July 13 - 19
Fox Trail Adventure
Our introductory class for ages 10-70+
Offered to ages 10-70+
Pre-requisite: None
This is a where it all begins. Students will be introduced to the natural world in a new and exciting way and given a chance to experience their own relationship with the Forest and those animals who live there. The building blocks of this new relationship are rooted in the ancient Primitive Living Skills that were lived by all people throughout the world. These skills include personal shelter construction from only what materials the landscape provides, fire making methods using no matches or lighters, techniques for finding and gathering safe drinking water in the woods, silent movement, observing animals and birds, tracks and sign, and feeling the sense of belonging and fellowship with the forest. Above all, the most important skill is the cultivation of the imagination and the wonder of a Questioning mind. The relationship one develops with Nature is the founding for a healthy relationship with self, and so with family and friends.
The Fox Trail Adventure is offered in conjunction with the
Family Fox Trail to give families an opportunity to experience
Coyote Trails at the same time. Parents, Teens and Youth
will be in separate learning groups. Meals and some
evening activities will be spent together.
